Extending Engine Run Time

To extend the engine run time by 10 minutes, repeat Steps 1 and 2 while the engine is still running.

The engine run time can only be extended if it is the first remote start since the vehicle has been driven.

A maximum of two remote starts or remote start attempts are allowed between ignition cycles.

After the vehicle's engine has been started two times using the remote start button, the ignition must be turned on and then back off before the remote start procedure can be used again.
